On Saturday April 16th 2011 campaigners from across the country will be gathering in Manchester to mark World Day for Animals in Laboratories, a UN recognised date to remember the many millions of animals worldwide who are tortured and killed in experiments each year.
The day will begin with a rally in Whitworth Park, on Oxford Rd, Manchester. Here there will be speeches from activists, info stalls and vegan food. Later at around 1.30pm the march will set off along Oxford Road.

The route will first take us down Oxford Rd, past Manchester University, which carries out more animal experiments than any other university in the north of England. However we will also be passing Manchester Metropolitan University which by contrast is one of a growing number of universities which do not carry out experiments on animals.

The march will then take us around the centre of Manchester, taking the anti-vivisection message to many thousands of people on a busy Saturday afternoon, before finishing with a rally in Albert Square, next to Manchester Town Hall.

The events of the day will also be focussing on the role played by Manchester Airport as one of the major importers of animals for experimentation, more details nearer the time.
